Planning permission for pool side cabin

just thinking about a sort of arbour/cabin thingy to put by pool for shade and changing… I do understand that over 20 sq metres I will need approval which I will get if needed… The question is do roof overhangs add to the dimension and if there is an open area attached to an enclosed area (i.e. only a back ‘wall’ ) does that count also… ? Much appreciate anybody’s thoughts on this… again… I will abide by the rules, just dont want any unnecessary admin in my life!!! Thank you…

To be on the safe side, keep the entire footprint under 20m2 and submit a declaration préalable to your mairie with lors of drawings and photos. If there’s any issues, they should let you know fairly quickly, well after August anyway
